steve martin & the steep canyon rangers - girl from river run lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
there’s a girl who lives outside the town
in a house set in the sun
she’s the one they have their eyes set on
she’s the girl from river run
all the young men in their senior year
can’t imagine compromise
by the fall, they’re walking down the aisle
with this darling as a prize

[chorus]
every man from every neighbor town
intends to make his feelings known
but not a word from me was ever heard
about the girl from river run
[verse 2]
many came to graduation day
she went off to lsu
everybody stood and waved goodbye
but i had been accepted too

[chorus]
every man from every neighbor town
intends to make his feelings known
but not a word from me was ever heard
about the girl from river run

[verse 3]
teddy had a fine mercedes+benz
his dad, a man from new york state
he courted her with everything he’s got
she never did reciprocate

[chorus 2]
david was the finest athlete
handsome, strong and kappa phi
they went dancing at the junior prom
he took her home, she said goodbye

[verse 4]
then, she set aside her youthful ways
though she’s only twenty+one
at a lecture, i ran into her
and we laughed and had some fun
[chorus 3]
we walked outside and meant to get some air
she said to me, “where are you from?”
“a country place you probably don’t know of
a little town called river run”

[outro]
then, a smile broke across her face
she missed the people from her home
two years later, i was married to
that darling girl from river run
